A member asked:
If obamacare is repealed w/o replacement, how will physicians handle care for patients? will you perform very basic service? stop doing surgeries?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
We will do whatever: it takes to take care of patients. I was taking care of patients long before most people were on insurance (private or governmental) , and the job got done. Sometimes we bartered for services, sometimes we were paid in chickens or pies. I really do not think Congress will leave the country high and dry. Do you?
